However, it was too late. Charlie and Simon were already standing by the bed.
Simon, who was wearing a white coat, was standing in the front, bent slightly to ask the old lady about her condition, and occasionally took note of a notebook.
Wendy slowed down and moved to the other side of the bed quietly, which was ignored by all of them.
After knowing about what he wanted, Simon walked to the window to answer a phone call, and grandma's eyes fell on Charlie.
Fearing that she might be mistaken, the old lady put on her presbyopic glasses and said, "Are you Wendy's boyfriend?"
Wendy didn't dare to look at him, but she could feel Charlie's eyes were fixed on her.
"Uh! Well, I..."
She nervously swallowed and prevaricated.
To deal with the situation here was even tougher than to figure out a difficult math question. When she didn't know what to do, Charlie suddenly took a step forward, "Grandma, nice to meet you!"
"Good to see you too!" Grandma smiled and nodded, and her eyes fixed on him, "I finally see you today! In fact, I have been wanting to see you, but I was afraid that it would be too rash."
"No, I've been wanting to see you for a long time." Charlie glanced at Wendy, who was standing opposite him. He showed a faint smile and said, "But Wendy didn't allow me to do so."
His voice was calm, peaceful, and soft with respect. It was not as cold as usual.
The old lady was satisfied. She smiled and motioned to her granddaughter, "Wendy, bring a chair for Charlie!"
"Okay..."
"Wendy, bring some fruits for Charlie!"
"Got it..."
Wendy brought a chair and an apple to Charlie. She secretly peeked at his when she was doing these.
He acted so naturally that she was in a trance.
Wendy even thought about it in a good way. Maybe he didn't hear what grandma had said just now. He was just willing to be kind to the old lady. Just as on the cruise ship, he was very patient when he stayed with the elderly.
However, Wendy couldn't move her eyes away from him. She would look at him subconsciously, especially when he was talking to grandma without distraction. He was in a good manner and patient, "Grandma, no worries. Doctor Chin is my friend, and he was really a good doctor."
"Good boy, thank you!" The old lady nodded repeatedly.
Simon, who was standing by the window, hung up the phone and walked back, "I've known about the patient's condition. I'll further think about it after I go back." "I'll see you off." Charlie nodded.
"I'll see you off, too!" Wendy hurriedly put down the apple.
The door of the ward closed, which blocked the old lady's sight.
"Mr. Chin..."
Wendy realized something wrong and quickly corrected, "Doctor Chin, I heard that you were expensive..."
"I can offer you a friendly price. What's more, Charlie is your paymaster, no worries!" Simon put his hands in his white coat pocket and raised his eyebrows to show a smile.
Wendy was a little offended by the word "paymaster".
Yes, in other people's eyes, it was indeed the case.
"You don't need to worry too much about your grandma. I'm good at heart bypass surgery."
"OK." Wendy nodded.
To put it bluntly, three Doctor Hsu would no better than one Doctor Chin.
Simon looked at the watch and said to them, "Since it's in the hospital, I have to be responsible for the patients. I can't talk with you more and I must go back and get prepared. There is an operation at seven o'clock in the evening!"
"Thank you, Doctor Chin!" Wendy was sincerely grateful. Simon waved his hand and said no problem. He turned around and left. His white coat drifted as he was walking.
Wendy's eyes were moving with him.
